To determine when oxygen peaked and carbon dioxide and temperature fell simultaneously, we refer to Earth's geological and atmospheric history. Around 300 million years ago (MYA), during the Carboniferous period, there was a peak in oxygen levels due to extensive plant growth (which also led to coal formation), along with drops in carbon dioxide and global temperature.
